Cornerstone Designs

Cornerstone Designs, run by Eric Hanson out of West Roxbury, says on its Houzz profile that it has worked exclusively in flooring since 2016, after Hanson relocated the business from St. Louis to Boston in 2021. The stated focus is narrow and specific: hardwood and tile installation, plus custom, vinyl, and laminate flooring sales and installation, with typical jobs running $500 to $30,000. The clearest look at the actual work comes from a single detailed Google review from May 2026, where a customer describes hiring Cornerstone Designs for a kitchen project — tearing out an old floor, laying a new one, and adding a tile backsplash — and praises the clear communication and on-time delivery, giving it 5 stars. Google shows the company at a 5.0 average, though that's built on just five ratings total, and neither its Houzz nor its BuildZoom profile shows any customer reviews at all. Worth asking about before booking: BuildZoom's listing shows a Massachusetts Home Improvement Contractor/General Contractor license under the company that expired back in August 2023 and currently reads as cancelled, which is why BuildZoom scores the business at zero for lack of an active license on file. BuildZoom also describes the company's work as spanning kitchen, bathroom, basement, and whole-home remodeling plus additions — broader than the flooring-and-tile specialty the company describes on its own Houzz page — so it's worth asking directly what work they'll take on before signing anything. For a homeowner who needs hardwood, tile, or laminate flooring installed or replaced, especially as part of a kitchen or bath refresh, Cornerstone Designs looks like a plausible, narrowly-focused call on the strength of that one recent review.
